    My second Ace

    Second Ace... Hey guys, thanks! :) Haha, all I hear is the sound of the chains. It was actually the first hole of the second round. We only had time for the front 9 the second time through. I went -5 through the front that time, with a bogie from the long on 2... With a -5 on the 18 before...
